Vanessa Hudgens slammed pregnancy rumors that surfaced during her bachelorette party in October, when social media users thought she was secretly expecting a baby with now-husband Cole Tucker, E! News reports.
The High School Musical alum Vanessa Hudgens recently took aim at pregnancy rumors that surfaced during her bachelorette party in October, saying speculation that she was secretly hiding a baby bump at the time made her “feel fat.”
“I literally just had a run-in with the public taking control over their opinion of me in a way that was disrespectful,” she shared on the March 6 episode of the She Pivots podcast. “I went out on my bachelorette and I posted video of me, and there are all these comments that are like, ‘Oh my god, you’re pregnant.'”
Since she actually wasn’t pregnant at the time, Vanessa Hudgens thought the unwarranted comments were “so rude.”
“I’m sorry I don’t wear Spanx every day,” she sarcastically quipped, “and am a real woman and have a real body.”
But instead of letting the rumors put a damper on what Vanessa called “one of the happiest times of my life,” the 35-year-old, who went on to tie the knot with baseball player Cole Tucker in December used the experience as a reminder of the “simple rules of being a good person.”
“Don’t make assumptions,” Vanessa noted of one of the tenets she lives by, “in all aspects of life, but especially over other women’s bodies.”
Explaining how women “deal with so much with other people trying to control our bodies,” the Sucker Punch star added that social media users need to be “more mindful” about making assumptions about her personal life.
So, what are her baby plans then? As Vanessa put it, “Nothing wrong about being pregnant, obviously, I can’t wait for the day.”
